I can’t shot videos or listening to music or calling the phone is turned on but i cant do nothing !
Please @abouchard, no rice recommendations! It just simply doesn’t work. The water is inside the phone, on the logic board and under the shields, even under the IC’s. The rice is nowhere near where the water is. So while it ‘’may’’ soak up some water vapour, the real problem is the mineral deposits that can cause short circuits or the corrosion that is taking place as the water evaporates. Leaving the power on the device accelerates the process. The longer you let a phone sit in rice, the more time you are giving corrosion to damage your logic board. The saltier or harder the water is, the more damage will occur. The water needs to be displaced, not evaporated. Sorry about that, now on to helping the OP: Open your phone and remove the logic board (Samsung Galaxy S5 Motherboard Replacement)Inspect the logic board, especially around the connectors and look for corrosion.Inspect both sides of the board. Unfortunately, some of the board is covered in shields. That’s usually where the damage is occurring.Put your board in a container with >90% isopropyl alcohol and let it sit for a while.Use a soft brush, like a toothbrush and lightly brush away any corrosion you see.Rinse in alcohol and repeat.Let it air dry for a day.Re-assemble and hope for the best. You should also consider getting a new battery if it has swollen. Resist the temptation to pop it to let the gas out. A compromised Li-ion battery is a fire hazard. A professional repair shop that does water damage repair may be able to fix your phone or recover data because they have access to pro-level ultrasonic baths and specialized cleaners as well as the skills to troubleshoot your board. Many shops have a no fix/no fee policy so you don’t have to spend money to find out if the phone is fixable or not.
@almaystero & @abouchard - Sorry I’m late in the dialog, Rice won’t soak up water in a liquid state! It only soaks up water vapor. Forget this old urban legend it doesn’t work with a soaked device. Now if you were in a humid rainforest and just got out of your air conditioned car you would see your glasses fog up then you need a desiccant to dry out the moisture in your camera bag then it makes sense! Step 1: Shake out and/or dry as much surface water you canStep 2: Turn off the device ASAP and if you can disconnect the batteryStep 3: keep the device as cool as you can (don’t freeze) until you can open the device to fully dry it out. Time is your enemy! The longer you wait the more damage is possible.Step 4: Don’t power up the device! Until your sure the water has been cleaned out. Surgery and/or acidic drinks need to be fully cleaned!
